Who says you can’t measure love? At TrustRadius, we can, and we have some of the most-loved products out there on our site. Last year, we developed several formulas to quantify or measure love sentiment expressed in customer reviews.

TrustRadius announces 413 awards for software that has Best Feature Set, Best Value for Price, and Best Relationship

Love is, famously, impossible to measure. No one can accurately quantify love, but here at TrustRadius, we enjoy two things. We like pushing boundaries, and we really like reviews. Our wonderful team has evaluated our vendors and their reviews, looking for how often users mentioned something they absolutely love about these products. The process involved some pretty amazing variable phrases, including “loveDensity”. Beat that for romance, Romeo and Juliet. Now, we aren’t saying we have SOLVED love, in a leap that will go down in history, be sung about in songs, written of in poetry, and discussed in scientific journals… but we’re not NOT saying that either… So here is our list of the 2021 Most Loved products from our site, including the top 10, which hold a special place in our reviewers’ hearts. Top Ten Most Loved Products of 2021 Acuity Scheduling, a Squarespace company Wow, were users feeling this one. At the top of our Most Loved list, this product is no stranger to our awards, having received a Top Rated award for best Appointment Scheduling Software. We can only hope their (virtual) trophy cabinet has the space, and that their inbox can hold all the DMs they […]

Business Intelligence software (BI) makes up a large heterogeneous category of software, however not all tools in the category can be meaningfully compared to each other. There are several types of BI tools of which the most substantive are Full-Stack Business Intelligence Tools and Data Discovery and Visualization Tools.  Full-stack BI solutions are useful for organizations that wish to deliver relatively stable operational reports in a consistent format to front-line staff across the organization. On the other hand, the focus for Data Discovery and Visualization tools is not primarily reporting and monitoring, but rather ad-hoc analysis of multiple data sources. These tools provide data analysts with an intuitive way to sift through large volumes of data to expose patterns and outliers hidden in the data.  This year, TrustRadius is awarding the best in customer support and usability among some of the most common categories of Business Intelligence Software (BI) tools in use today. The Best Of Business Intelligence winners are:  Best Usability – Business Intelligence ThoughtSpot, 1st Place Best Customer Support – Data Visualization BI Sigma Computing, 1st Place Best Business Intelligence Usability Business Intelligence (BI) tools are designed to solve the specific problem of enterprise data silos.

Document Management Systems (DMS) provide enterprises with the capability to digitally capture and convert documents and files. Features of document management software may also extend to document storage, search and retrieval, and sharing. DMS reduces enterprise dependence upon space-consuming document printing hardware, printed paper, and file drawers. At TrustRadius, we are recognizing the best of Document Management Systems in the following categories: Best Support, Best Usability, and Best Feature Set. As filing cabinets are becoming a thing of the past, moving documents onto the cloud allows for easy sharing capabilities both internally and externally. However, this does open up opportunities in weak systems for security and privacy threats.  It’s important to consider the quality of security as a top feature of your DMS. Also, if upgrading systems, you’ll want easy to use software so your employees can easily get their virtual workspace up and running. And in the rare case when things go awry, having a support team on your side to quickly solve issues is extremely important.  For 2021, here are the top awarded Document Management Systems: Contract AnalysisKira Systems, Feature Set, 1st Place Document Management PowerDMS, Customer Support, 1st Place Adobe Acrobat DC, Customer Support, 2nd Place PowerDMS, […]
